XP SERVICE PACK 2 Mup.sys issues. Seems to me for all I have read mup.sys hanging
problems are hardware/bios related. I have an ASUS P4SP-MX motherboard that workd
fine until I updated to XP Service pack 2 then I got the dreaded mup.sys hang in
safe mode. I upgraded my BIOS and All was fine. A friend of mine also had the same
problem after upgrading to XP SP2 he had to disable his on board USB ports and buy
an additional PCI USB card to fix his problem. I guess his BIOS didn’t work with
XP SP 2. I advised him to keep a check for a new version of BIOS. If you have an
old motherboard it may be time to update.
